The Wind Witch of Draakensky

A Short Story

Paula Cappa

Jaa Morland lives on the edge of the world, a sliver outside of time, in Bedford, New York. This old woman is a wind witch and smart as a crack of lightning. She knows powerful river magick. Owl magick too. Yet her magick cannot help locate her sister Heida who is lost, or stolen, in the forbidden woods on a menacing autumn night inside the hills and crags of Draakensky Windmill Estate.

Here, thunder mutters. Here, thready phantoms break the sky to reveal themselves like a flock of dead beauties. Jaa must conjure up all her powers to rescue her sister. Witch-weaving wisdom does not come easily this night—as Jaa Morland succumbs to the mysteries of Draakensky that radically change her life forever.

Come experience the wind beings on Draakensky Windmill Estate. For more about Jaa Morland, catch the quick video below.

In this dark, intriguing short story (a prequel), Paula Cappa sets the ghostly drama for her novel, the Gothic thriller—

Draakensky, A Supernatural Tale of Magick and Romance, published by Crystal Lake Publishing, available in paperback and ebook format.

Jon R. Meyers of The Horror Zine reviewed the novel Draakensky as "A powerful, timeless piece of dark fiction. Well-researched, written as top-notch, and contains deep character development. A beautifully haunting supernatural tale. A Gothic setting that is dark and poetic. Factual magick, witchcraft, Arthurian legend, Celtic lore, and more. A book that is different, unique, and stands out loudly from the rest. Highly recommended."

“Paula Cappa is a master of the metaphysical mystery genre ... an extraordinary and original storyteller of the first rank.
